I've been down that road many times myself with engine/machine shops.
So I know what you're going through!
At least they aren't swapping parts on you like they used to try and do when I'd rebuild a cheby motor!
That one shop use to try and swap my 4 bolt main blocks for 2 bolt ones.
Oh no you don't! I said.
I told them everything is stamped to match and if I didn't get the right parts I was going to bill'm for a HO crate motor.
I built A LOT of 383 strokers for kids back then.
That allowed me the extra cash to play with my Dodge blocks. Dang those 340's were expensive to work on and beef up.
Ok enough of my engine/machine shop experiences and back to Dave's fabulous build!
